I’d like to remove the VKD3D and frame time and only show the FPS, is this possible?

After the patch notes of the latest proton experimental release(and its subsequent patch notes modification to remove BOCW as part of the now playable) i decided to "sacrifice" an account to verify it is actually working and no longer bans you. I was able to play a total of 6 hours across 2 days on Die Maschine and havent been banned yet, bans before this would happen on the menu before you even got to a game.

Some issues i noticed:
- Terrain textures are flickery but not unbearable
- Theres severe memory leakage, however since i have a 64GB RAM system i was able to handle it for 34 rounds before i crashed
- Mouse Input freaks out after leaving any UI menu for 2s before returning to normal, works fine in game

The game is extremely fun and satisfying to play however. I started at level 0 and have gotten to L20 since since i had not played Cold War before this and im very happy it works.

I have no idea what to do at this point. Even on Linux native games, on Steam, pressing the play button just syncs the game to cloud, then doesn't actually launch the game. Steam from the KDE discover page didn't work so i installed it through Flatpak, and all my drives are (EXFAT I MEANT EXFAT). have the right versions of proton, have all the drives mounted, and can't seem to find anyone else who has had this issue before online. TF2 just syncs to steam then the play button pops up again, same on Ultrakill, Terraria, etc.

Tried first on Cachy, then switched to Kubuntu now and it still has the same issue. launching from desktop also just runs the game for 2 seconds before closing it. I have no idea what to do at this point and am thinking of begrudgingly returning to windows if i cant run any of my games....

(I have an AMD gpu if that matters.)

Hello ! I’ve been trying to play on an existing server hosted on my Xbox, bought this copy of Abiotic Factor just to play online, and I’m having no luck connecting !

I am playing on Linux Mint Cinnamon, using Lutris and Wine, I’ve whitelisted Steam in my firewall as well ! I’ve verified the game files, I’ve attempted connection with all the NAT type compatibility options, as well as the Direct Connection option. I’ve also tried joining the server via the Steam View options, however that only listed some servers and there seemed to be no one on them?

I’m very new to Linux so apologies for my ignorance, and thank you in advance for all your help.

OS: Linux mint 22.2 cinnamon

Cinnamon Version: 6.4.8

Linux Kernel: 6.14.0-37-generic

Processor: Intel Core iS-4300M CPU @ 2.60GHz x2

Graphics Card: Intel Corporation 4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller

Display Server: X11

Semi-Update- In my previous post I had ended up with error code Fleming, but I think that’s cause the servers were down then anyway. No more Fleming error code, just unable to connect online (despite... many attempts)

My wife has a Terraria world that she hosts on Steam for us to play together. We have had no issues playing together for the past few weeks until recently, when my Terraria crashes when trying to join her server. I can join singleplayer worlds just fine with the same character I played in her world, and attempting to join her world with any character results in both Terraria and Steam as a whole crashing. Terraria is being played on the most recent version with no workshop items.

I have performed a full system upgrade and rebooted, verified integrity of game files, and reinstalled Terraria. My game still crashes and behaves the same. Terraria is being played natively, no proton or launch options other than -logerrors -logfile. After forcing regular Proton, GE-Proton, and CachyOS proton, there is no change. Terraria and Steam both still crash at "Joining player...".

I am running CachyOS with KDE Plasma 6 (Wayland), Kernel Linux 6.18.2-2-cachyos with an Nvidia graphics card (RTX 5070Ti) on the latest nvidia-open driver, 590.48.01-3.

I ran steam-native through kitty, with -logerrors -logfile as launch options in Terraria, to try to figure out what could be causing this issue. After Steam crashes, this is all that is left in my terminal window:

What I believe the problem to be is the SEGFAULT at /home/dylan/.local/share/Steam/steam.sh: line 928: 28516 Segmentation fault (core dumped) "$STEAMROOT/$STEAMEXEPATH" "$@" but I am not sure the cause of this or how to fix this. The same issue persists if I run steam instead of steam-native.

If anyone has any ideas how to fix this, I would appreciate some help here. I have been trying to fix it for a couple days now. Thanks!

I recently switched to Linux Mint 22 to revive my old 2014 laptop a little (nothing complex or current, just classics), but I'm really lost when it comes to installing any .exe files. I already struggled a lot trying to install Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War (the original) through Lutris, only for it to not work properly in the end, as the campaign mode doesn't work, and I really don't know how to configure these games with errors or which launcher to use (I've heard of Lutris, Heroic, Faugus, etc.).

Hello, this is my first post here.

I've recently installed Mint 22.2 Cinnamon and created a dual boot on my computer (previously only with Windows). I have an SSD with Windows 10 installed (C:), a 1Tb HD (D:) with various programs and files, especially my Steam Library, and now I've got another SSD in which I've installed Mint. The system is running very well, and installing programs and drivers was pretty easy.

I'm having trouble in trying to play my Steam games from my Steam Library stored on (D:). I've tried installing a few different versions of Proton, but so far only X-Plane 11 worked well. All other games only show as running for a few seconds, and then shut down again, without ever actually opening. I've already tried deleting the "pfx" folder from compatdata, but it did not work. However, for two games, I've tested moving the installation files to my Linux SSD, and they started running ok.

I'm wondering if it's actually possible to run these games from (D:) on a dual boot, or if I have to do some other process for it to work.

This is the Mint version I'm using:

System:
Kernel: 6.14.0-37-generic arch: x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc v: 13.3.0 clocksource: tsc
Desktop: Cinnamon v: 6.4.8 tk: GTK v: 3.24.41 wm: Muffin v: 6.4.1 vt: 7 dm: LightDM v: 1.30.0
Distro: Linux Mint 22.2 Zara base: Ubuntu 24.04 noble

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

im relatively new to linux and sick of windows' bullshit and i want to game. i want comparable (maybe better in some scenarios) performance to windows and i also still want to have the option to customize my os.i want it to be fast and snappy and i also want to have the pc be general use which i why i didnt really want to go for a gaming based distro like bazzite. i am running an arc b580 and i heard its better to go with fedora/arch based distros as it ships newer kernels. i also want it to be fairly customizzable and not insanely locked down. i also value privacy and security alot. after some research ive narrowed it down to EndeavourOS,CachyOS and (something else that i forgot, sorry) and as a sort of last resort, fedora.

I'm wondering which of theese 3 would be best for gaming and general use. i also wonder if theres anything thats better than it that wont require hours upon hours of optimization just to be slightly better.

incase it matters im also runnning a 12600kf and 16gb ddr4 memory.

Hey guys, I’m running a normal Fedora with a fully writable root, and I love being a power user who can tweak everything. At the same time, I want my system to perform and behave as closely as possible to Bazzite/SteamOS all the gaming tweaks, kernel patches, Mesa versions, Gamescope, Proton setup, Decky Loader, MangoHud, controller configs, etc. All of that stuff. Does anyone know of guides, tutorials, or detailed posts that explain how to replicate a similar setup with all the quality of life features on a normal, writable Linux system? I’m looking for something as close to 1:1 as possible — scripts, configurations, patches, the whole stack,as long as it keeps my system fine of course Thanks in advance!

I recently installed Bazzite coming from Windows (where I was already running a debloater script to remove the background telemetry garbage). Initial impressions were great—until I tried playing my two main games: CS2 and Overwatch 2.

The colors looked completely washed out. HDR was enabled at the OS level, but the games weren’t picking it up: ∙ CS2 doesn’t have HDR settings, but it works perfectly on Windows ∙ Overwatch 2 has HDR options but didn’t detect my monitor as compatible

I’m running an Alienware AW3225QF, which definitely supports HDR. I spent a couple of hours searching online, asking AI assistants, running terminal commands, trying different launch options… nothing worked.

This was frustrating because I genuinely wanted to make Linux my daily driver and finally ditch Windows. I had high hopes that Linux gaming had matured to the point where things just work—especially with a gaming-focused distro like Bazzite. I’m comfortable with tech (I’d consider myself a geek), but I don’t want to spend hours troubleshooting just to get basic functionality that works out of the box on Windows. In the end, I gave up. I can’t accept washed-out colors on a high-end monitor. Back to Windows it is.

Has anyone else dealt with HDR issues on Bazzite or similar distros? Is there something obvious I’m missing, or is HDR on Linux still not quite there yet?

I tried running Medal on Proton but it didn’t detect my monitor, so I gave up. Later in the evening, when I used ClamAV, it showed me this. Is it a false positive? I installed Medal from the official source medal.tv

I was having some trouble with Fallout 3 crashing every time it lost focus, for example when alt tabbing. It also struggled with capturing the mouse, and I ended up using gamescope in order to "fix" these issues. However, I tested out the experimental Wayland driver for Wine as I saw it in the Heroic launch options. It worked straight out of the box, alt-tabbing worked as it should, latency was noticably improved. This is looking really promising!

I'm losing my mind.

I've been running bazzite for a few weeks now, almost a month with no issues and then after a 24 hour maintenance on FFXIV my game won't stay open for more than an hour. It was working just fine until then. Since that I started getting DX11 errors, so I tried reinstalling the game, testing different ge-proton compatabilities, settings, ujust update to make sure everythings updated. And now I don't get the dx11 error anymore the game just shuts down.

This happens in both gamescope and desktop mode, no error messages or anything. I've tried xiv launcher and that too crashes.

I'm still a novice with linux gaming, I don't know if I missed something or if I need to change anything.
